Meta ads that grow small businesses on small budgets.
I'm Kelly, and I've spent 13 years building and growing businesses. I run Meta ads that put your business in front of the people most likely to buy.
01 / Why Meta ads
Small ad budget. Serious attention.
Most small businesses I talk to already have what they need to grow. They’ve built something worth discovering and have a phone full of photos and videos. What they're missing is reach.
Five dollars a day can put your business in front of people hundreds of times a day. Meta shows your ads to the people most likely to become customers, and when more of the right people see you, more of them buy from you.
02 / Results
Here's what my clients' ads are doing right now
$12 a day → 340 bookings
A French Quarter Pilates studio booked 340 classes and memberships in four months at $4.45 each. At an average purchase of $55, that's about $18,700 in sales from $1,512 in ad spend.
$23 a day → $22,800 in ticket sales
A comedy club sold 369 ticket orders from July through October, about 8x its ad spend back.
$5 a day → sold-out shows
A burlesque speakeasy has sold out its shows since July, with 7,300+ website visits at 7 cents each.
$21 a day → 50+ reservations
An Italian restaurant booked 50+ reservations in its first month of ads, with 8,000+ reservation page visits since September at 11 cents each.
Every one of these is an independent local business.
03 / What you get
I run your ads so you can run your business.
Here's what you get every month:
- 01
A strategy built around your business
Every business gets a custom strategy, tailored to your target audience, your goals and your budget.
- 02
Up to 2 campaigns, each with 2–4 ads
Depending on your goals, I'll run sales campaigns, traffic campaigns or a mix of both to bring in purchases, bookings and website visitors.
- 03
Easy-to-record content from your phone, turned into world-class ads that speak to your customers
I'll tell you exactly what to shoot, and you send me the raw footage. I turn it into scroll-stopping ads with hook-first edits, captions and text overlays, sized for every placement on Facebook and Instagram.
- 04
Weekly check-ins and a comprehensive monthly report
We check in every week, and at the end of each month you get a full report on what you spent and what it brought in. I adjust your strategy every month as new data comes in.
04 / Pricing
Pricing
You don't want to manage ads yourself. You want someone who understands the platform, makes the creative, and knows how to optimize and scale the winners. You run your business, and you leave the growth to me.
Ad spend is separate, and you pay Meta directly. There's no minimum. We'll pick your starting ad spend together based on your goals and timeline.
Why 3 months?
In the first month, we learn which ads get the strongest response from your customers. Months two and three are where we build on what's working.
